2013 CRF450 Fork Swap Options

I'm pretty sure it's 10+ crf250 and 09+ crf450 should bolt right up

I put 2014 CRF250 Showa springers on my 13 Honda 450. Best move I made!

Direct bolt on, no mods needed other than valving and springs for the weight of a 450.

Ohlins RXF maybe? Huge improvement over stock.

Thanks guys.

A buddy has the Ohlins cartridges on his 2015 and seems happy.

Was looking for what forks could be completely swapped as I wasn't sure of the compatible years.

So the 2009-2012 CRF450 would work?

10-17 crf250 and 09-17 CRF450 forks will work in your 13 clamps.

Thanks mac, are all CRF250 forks sprung? or did tery switch to air at some point?

Hey guys,

Curious if anyone knows what options I have to switch out my 2013 CRF450 air forks to springers.

YZF swap? CRF250 swap?

Yo brother! Long time no talk. I really had a good feeling with my 2013 CRF450 air forks after Factory Connection revalved them. Before that they were pretty bad.
